Statement of Faith

We believe the Scriptures as the final and supreme authority in faith and life. We believe in the one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe that Jesus Christ, by offering Himself on the cross paid, the penalty of man’s sin, and that we may enter into the family of God on the basis of His shed blood. We believe in the bodily resurrection and imminent return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We believe all who receive, by faith, the Lord Jesus Christ are born of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God.

Philosophy of Education

“Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal
comfort and good hope by grace, comfort and strengthen your hearts in every good work and word.”
-2 Thessalonians 2:16-17

We believe that all of life, including education, is to center around Christ and His Word. We recognize the presence of Scriptural absolutes in the search for truth, the establishment of principles, the government of human life, and the design of morality.

Children need consistent training in character development. Parents are responsible and accountable to supervise the educational process of their children. Tutorial instruction, which personalizes the teaching according to the child’s needs, is preferred. As parents become learners along with their children, there will be increased motivation and strengthening of the family unit through mutual commitment.

Home education is the best environment to:

Develop family relationships in order to learn how to be sensitive and helpful to those outside the family;

Emphasize socialization with adults and all age levels of society rather than exclusively with peers;

Integrate all age levels daily- older students gain experience through teaching the younger ones; younger students benefit from being exposed to the training which the older ones receive;

Achievement through establishing goals for application is more important than simply covering material; and

Evaluate learning by recognition of achievement and productive capability, not only by the assignment of grades.
